Report: Daniel Levy banks six-digit pay rise despite Spurs struggles on the pitch
The Telegraph have revealed that Daniel Levy has awarded himself a pay rise of more than £500,000.
The popularity of Levy and ENIC is seemingly at an all-time low among the Tottenham fan base, with some fans chanting for the owners to leave in some of the club’s recent matches (Football.London).
The Spurs chairman’s latest decision will certainly not improve his popularity among the fans, with The Telegraph revealing that he has rewarded himself with a considerable pay rise.
The report reveals that Levy earned £3.265m this financial year in comparison to £2.698m the previous year.
Meanwhile, the total money pocketed by Tottenham’s directors, including managing director of Fabio Paratici and Todd chief commercial officer Todd Kline, has also gone up by almost £3m, with the Spurs directors seeing their pay go up from £4m to £6.7m.
The report explains that the £3.2m earned by Levy is still less than what the 61-year-old took home in the financial year that ended June 30 2019, when he was paid a salary of £4m and a £3m in bonuses for the completion of the stadium.

It is not completely fair to report this as a pay rise for Levy since the report makes clear that his salary was at £4m per year a few years ago and the Tottenham chairman took a considerable pay cut during the pandemic.
However, these figures are negligible given how much Levy has contributes to improving the club’s revenue streams but Spurs fans who dislike the 61-year-old will undoubtedly use this as another stick to beat him with.
